Method for machining steel with diamond tools

Description

This patent describes a method for decreasing the wear rate of a diamond cutting tool used in machining a steel workpiece. This method consists of providing a gaseous hydrocarbon atmosphere at the interface between the cutting tool and the workpiece during the machining of the latter with the concentration of gaseous hydrocarbons being adequate to inhibit the conversion of diamond carbon to graphite carbon at the point of contact of the diamond tool with the workpiece
